Today is a very special day for me as it marks five years since John and I started dating. Even though we now have a wedding anniversary to celebrate, this date will always hold a special place in my heart. Let's take a little trip down memory lane...

Our first couple selfie! We took this after walking up the Law, which is the big hill in the middle of Dundee, to watch the sunrise (aw, how romantic). It was freezing but very fun.

Our first anniversary trip to Broughty Ferry (just down the road from Dundee). We took a walk along the beach and enjoyed the sunshine.

Taken the day after we got engaged (by my lovely sister). I was working in a chalet in the French Alps for the winter season (5 months) and John was in his final year at uni in Dundee. He came out to visit for a week with my family and asked me to marry him!

This is from our first camping trip in the Peak District as husband and wife. It was so sunny and hot, living in England felt like a foreign country to me that summer!

Ringing in the new year!
I can't quite believe it's been 5 years...! As cheesey as it sounds, my life really did change when I meet John. Before, I didn't really understand relationships and why people would want to spend so much time with their boyfriend. I remember a few weeks after John & I starting out going, I had a big long conversation with my sister about what love is, and how you know if you are in love. (She will probably remember it and laugh at me!) When we met, I was going to be a doctor live in Scotland and John was going to be become a scuba diving instructor in Mexico. Somehow God put us on the same path and brought us together.
John brings out the best in me, always encourages me, looks after me and makes me laugh. I am so blessed to have had him as my best friend for 5 years!
